Spike Week 2015!

The nimble racing flat meets the quick track spike in The Wire 3. Bringing together the smooth ride of a lightweight, foam midsole and the just-right traction of an aggressive outsole, this racer kicks in with what you need, when you need it. Amazing in-shoe comfort, a light and supple 3D Fit Print upper, and embedded spike wells are just a few of the touches that will put you on the podium. Ideal for distances 1500 meters and beyond.

Available in men's sizes only. For women we suggest ordering 1.5 sizes smaller than what you usually wear.

I went to college at Indiana University and the University of Colorado, schools sponsored by Adidas and Nike, respectively. Coming from this background, I had zero familiarity with Brooks Spikes. While my initial intuition regarding Brooks spikes was negative, I quickly realized how much technology, time, and energy went into developing these spikes. Well done!

The L-3s give me great traction at fast intervals and allow my feet to be comfortable during mile repeats.

This was my spike of choice for the 3200m during this year's indoor and outdoor seasons. The spike has received a major upgrade in the comfort area since its last iteration; I had next to no issues with blisters until the shoe began to wear down. Durability was not as big of an issue either; they stayed completely intact until the state meet, during which one of the shoes developed a tear on the back. Also, the spike has a significant amount of design appeal in my opinion; especially in the blue/red color. Overall, I was quite impressed with the spikes and I will be using another pair next season.

This is my favorite distance spike I have worn! It is super light and doesn't give me blisters (many other spikes do give me blisters while racing). This is more flexible and less rigid then all the other Brooks spikes. I would wear them from a 3k to 10k on the track. I would even wear them for a 1500/mile but some people may want something more rigid.
